Threshold Program: Residence Life Activites and Events

Activities and Events

The Threshold Program's residence life activities and events help students learn to be
social. They also help students participate in cultural- and leisure
experiences available around Boston. Programs are often held on the
weekends. They range from on-campus community-building activities and
Boston-area events to an annual trip to New York City. Staff often take
program ideas of the students and ask them to help design and lead
certain activities.
